Just buy it
Size: 48 in
Very nice, better than Crick

The best level I ever used.
Size: 48 in
I am a mason. Been doing the trade for 40 years. These are the best levels I have ever used. Accurate,durable, easy to read bubbles that don't break like other levels. My level came in perfect condition. I was a bit apprehensive buying a level through the mail. I like to check that the level shows plumb exactly the same on all 4 positions. I checked it when it came, and it was spot on. This is my 3rd Stabila. First one lasted 3 years until it got bent in a hydro scaffolding. Second one lasted about the same but had a big chunk out of the level bubble makeover it hard to see the bubble. I have bought MANY levels in my lifetime, these are the best. I even have the 16 inch one. Have it over 5 years. Let me add that we masons are very hard on tools. Half our crew owns them. 25 percent won't buy them because they are NOT made in the USA, my only gripe. The others are just too cheap to pay for a good tool. A little masonry cleaner ( muriatic acid, sure clean, diluted) will make the level look almost new again. If your a homeowner, this level should last you a lifetime with common sense care. Good luck. ... show more

Best level on the market!!!
Size: 36 in
I'm a bricklayer, I use levels everyday. For a Mason that want to just buy one level and not be replacing it every year I highly recommend. I will only be using these from here on out!!! Great product, and we'll worth the price!!!

Brick level
Size: 48 in
I am a mason. Looking for a solid maintenance free level that will hold up. I like the level for that fact, no maintenance, you can clean it very easily. I wish the site glasses were both at the top of level. With the bumper on the top it is hard to level a lines. Overall it is better than crick that have seen to have gone hill since I started doing this 35 years ago. ... show more

Apprentice Mason Review
Size: 48 in
Been using Smith and Crick for a while so I gave this masonry stabilla level a try and it’s a game changer. A lot lighter, more presice, and love the fact that you don’t have to do as much maintenance on your level like you would on a wood level 👍🏽
